Who Knows?

Everyday brings new surprises and continues to amaze me. I got up rather early today to the clock radio.  I shut it off and made my bed, then headed to shower and stated the day moving forward.  When I returned to put on my makeup, the talk show was about politics.   I began flipping to find some music, but couldn’t find anything but news. I shut it off.  It was just too early and not what I needed!  Instead Rosy got my attention; she is a sweet calming presence!Rosy & Mom

I headed out to babysit and visit with my daughters family. It was a pleasant hour ride.  I listen to Satellite radio and called in a show today to offer an opinion about a family matter.   It was rather fun.

There is nothing as precious as being with a 12 week old baby and watching their little personality blossom each week.  Our oldest granddaughter, a college senior  was home and a big help.  It was nice to have the adult company.
I returned to my office to pick up mail, answer phones, and catch up on the days events.  All pretty routine things to catch up to date.

The last important thing to do was return a letter to friends in Nebraska.  A couple we met in 1968 while my husband was in training with a large company has kept in touch with us ever since by mail.   Our lives have paralleled one another with the birth of children, graduations, and family events.  A sad note arrived telling us the husband had died.  I took some time to write a short letter and send out the card.

The day continued on the fast track with personal stuff in the evening.  Including the purchase of a new car.  Very exciting.  It was topped off with a visit to our son and his family to show them our new purchase.  A perfect day ended as we came home. Fog was everywhere, but we were safe. The weather was warm and pretty outside. Who would have known a day could be so jammed packed and complete?  We all need to embrace the minor moments!

Tomorrow is a voting day.    Delight in Living.
